through the dark road

Chapter 401 The decision of the Holy See

Both Caldeum City and Alcanas have undergone huge changes in the past few days, except that the various industries of the Conrad family are still in full swing. Gao Yin was transporting cheap supplies, and the industries of the rest of the family had even come to a standstill.

Even the humblest worker cannot accept a wage cut. Even though prices are falling now, this still cannot be used as a reason to cut wages.

What's more, the Conrad family went in the opposite direction and gave subsidies to the labor and military equipment in the family. The amount was not large, but it further blocked the way for other families to continue their lives by squeezing labor.

The building is about to collapse, and it is extremely difficult to preserve an attic by yourself at this time. Some nobles and wealthy businessmen have already foreseen their own ending, and they are in constant fear.

The materials currently on the market are not ordinary price fluctuations, but a business war that they have never experienced before.

As long as you still have a certain ability to analyze, you know that in this situation where the start of work is also a continuous loss, the sooner the work is stopped, the smaller the loss.

They thought that maybe they could keep a spark and make a comeback, because the Conrad family couldn't lose money endlessly to lower prices.

In fact, Mo Bei and the others did not intend to engage in a protracted war.

Because such a situation will definitely cause a series of chain reactions, the whole kingdom is already in panic.After a long time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end.

The shut down of industries has caused a large number of laborers to lose their stable income. Fortunately, the prices of food and other living materials have been greatly reduced, and they can survive in a short period of time. Reality.

As for the job-changers who guard those important outposts and strongholds, although they don't know what to do with their families, they don't directly abandon the responsibility of guarding, so the real turmoil and chaos have not yet appeared.

Although knowing that this situation will not persist for a long time, it is enough to make Mo Bei and others feel relieved. These people have not given up on the bottom line of being a job changer.

If the city of Kardim is completely in chaos, they will have to work hard to remedy it. There are not even decent fortifications on the periphery of the slums.

"Why don't you ask His Majesty Jerhyn to teleport a managerial person over to help."

Akali looked at Mo Bei and Perona endlessly analyzing and processing the feedback from various parts of the family, looking a little overwhelmed, and gave a suggestion.

Among the other four people, except Ned, they could give some advice. She and Miloer could only watch and not talk about such things, and Alvin couldn't count on it. He was either in a daze or picking his nose.

"I would like to...but it's really not very safe here. And I don't know if I can help. It takes a long time just to get familiar with the situation. Who knows when the Holy See will do something."

Mo Bei scratched his hair, and continued:

"Now I feel that the butler, Qiao Ya, is quite capable. It's a pity that we can't reveal too much to him, otherwise most of the things can be handed over to him."

"You still wanted to kill him before." Ned helped sort out all kinds of information and joked casually.

"It sounds so cruel to me..." Mo Bei said that he was not that kind of person.

"Didn't Conrad still have a wife, who was almost hacked to death by you, you can ask her to help." Alvin interrupted suddenly.

Mo Bei glanced at him, and said in his heart that you just miss the little widow!Then he uttered angrily:
"If I remember correctly, she should be from the Chamber of Commerce and Trade, right?"

The implication couldn't be more obvious. Although she doesn't know why she married Conrad, the two have never had any children, which shows that Conrad doesn't trust her.

"You're biased..." Alvin curled his lips, spread out on the table and continued to be in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Virgil's smelter has dismantled all the windmills." Milor put down the binoculars and said.

"Oh?"

When Mo Bei heard the words, he also took a look with his head. It was indeed as Miloer said that the wind turbines that had just been erected for a few days were being dismantled one by one.

This is to completely delete the account and stop playing?
He muttered something in his heart, thinking that the Holy See should also take action.

In the past few days, they have been paying attention to the movements of the Holy See and waiting for news from Wizel.

Relying on its status as the guardian and arbiter of the kingdom, the Holy See occupies a detached position in the city of Caldeum, and can also obtain stable profit sharing from all parties, so it has long been happy to see several forces in a balanced state.

But if this balance is broken and a huge force is formed to fight against them, then they can only want to eat farts, and it will be a problem to eat enough with the poor money in the hands of those foolish people.

Therefore, the Holy See would not ignore such drastic changes within the kingdom.

But until now, Mo Bei and the others have not received any news from the Holy See.

Bishop Wizel didn't expect that he had just reached a verbal alliance with Conrad, and Conrad would make such a big commotion as soon as he turned his head. What surprised him most was the speed of the development of the situation!

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to see the outcome of this kind of contest between huge families within a few months. After all, this era has many limitations, and there are very few such disruptive technological revolutions.

In just a few days, the major families have completely turned into a desperate defense, so fast that they can't even react.

While Weizel felt incredible, he was also delighted because he had found an opportunity to take action.

In the magnificent Sadenko Cathedral, in a heavily guarded side hall, three bishops rarely gathered together to study a metal device on a stone table, accompanied by arguments.

"I still insist on my point of view. To judge all things involving our unknown domain as heresy is against Akarat's will, and this cannot be used as the basis for arbitration."

Wiesel's voice is steady, his attitude is firm, and he seems to be supporting Conrad.

In the past few days, he has been procrastinating, rejecting the proposal of the other two bishops to initiate a council meeting.

It wasn't until Virgil sent this device called a generator to the church just now and filed an application for adjudication of heresy that he finally stood up.

"Without any magic circle or runes, it can generate the power of lightning out of thin air. This kind of device is like the minion of hell. It should not appear in this world." Bishop Tobias said with a dark face.

"You are just afraid because this kind of thing is beyond your understanding." Wizel mocked mercilessly.

"Whether it's a heresy or not can only be judged after Conrad fully explains the operation principle of this device." Among the three, the oldest Bishop, Isidore, narrowed his eyes, but faintly flashing.

"Yes!" Tobias nodded.

Wizel remained silent and did not express any objection, but a slight smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.

"You've been waiting for so many days, isn't this what you've been waiting for?" Isidore caught a trace of the look on Wizel's face, but he didn't take it seriously, and asked casually.

"Send someone to notify Conrad." Wizel ignored Isidor, left a word, turned and went straight out of the side hall.
